  • Author: Talentedcook

Ingredients

 

  • 2 cups of filtered water
  • A 2- to 3-inch piece of fresh ginger root
  • Optional flavor enhancers: lemon slices, a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup, fresh mint leaves


Instructions

 

  1. Prepare the Ginger
    Rinse the ginger under cold water. Use a small spoon or peeler to remove the thin skin. Slice it into very thin rounds or grate it finely—more surface area will yield a stronger brew.
  2. Bring to a Simmer
    Place the ginger in a small saucepan and pour in the water. Bring just to a boil, then reduce heat to maintain a gentle simmer.
  3. Steep
    Let the ginger infuse for 5–15 minutes. Shorter times yield a mild, refreshing taste; longer simmering brings out deeper, spicier notes.
  4. Strain and Serve
    Remove from heat and pour through a fine mesh strainer into a heat-proof mug or a pitcher. Discard the spent ginger or repurpose it in smoothies or baked goods.
  5. Customize
    Stir in optional lemon slices for brightness, a touch of natural sweetener if you prefer a hint of sweetness, or mint leaves for a cooling twist. You can refrigerate the infusion and enjoy it over ice throughout the day.
